  • Does anybody have this music?! I'm looking for it desperatly...I will play Salome and i would like to dance to this music...PLEASEEEEEE! Does anybody know the name of the song and the composer?

  • Salomé is a ballet and film made by Carlos Saura, a famous Spanish director. The music for this ballet has been composed by Roque Baños.  The film Salomé by Saura is available on DVD. The DVD sells for $20-30 (you can use Google Products), but I've purchased it for $9.99 + $2.99 shipping from an eBay store in China.

    The sound track for Salomé can be extracted from the DVD with many computer programs.

  • Amazing...Aida Gomez is so graceful...Carlos Saura did a fantastic job on this play.

    I remember watching it some years ago live here in Thessaloniki Greece. It was in an open theater and right at this scene it started to rain real hard. As the music got more frantic, the rain did too.Aida kept on dancing under the strong rain, passionately! The audience went mad!! It was a one of a kind, rare scene to remember!!!

  • She is really dancing as a princess, not a stripper. The pride , arrogance and elegance is part of the sexiness. You see she is being hot while despising on Herod's loveless lust.

  • @nicolezly I agree. Whenever I hear 'the male gaze' mentioned by a feminist, I think of precisely this scene. There is enough ambiguity to create quite a bit of tension.

  • Es lo mas sensual que he visto, muy bien logrado. La sensualidad no necesita de la vulgaridad, Shakira no le llega ni a la suela de los zapatos a esta danza.

  • the music is mesmerising, the dancer out of this world! simply brilliant

  • This is real Belly Dance...with full of feeling, sensuality...such an art.

  • Was the Dance of the seven veils a strep tease?

  • @raqueldelosarcos1970 well, actually you're very very very wrong, but this dance had nothing to do with belly dancing anyways

  • @maddiexs Lucky you! I wish I could re-live the experience!

  • @fluxuspoemORIGINAL

    that must have been an amazing experience! I saw Aida yesterday performing Carmen, she was absolute fire!

  • It's clear that there are lots of links to LOTS of different music and culture in flamenco...I just get tired of the connection being made (and of flamenco/belly dance fusion)...there is so much more that makes up flamenco...that's it really...I wasn't trying to start a "who knows more" discussion here...and, by the way, of course Aida Gomez is amazing...never said anything different.
